Doesn't this just suck?

I worked hard to gain a second in charge position within a department at work... Higher security level clearance, vast knowledge and experience, top performance awards...

All this lead to another department requesting me to help out for 4 months, which opened the door to gaining even more knowledge and experience...

Now I have returned to my old department, I have been reduced to just another worker: second in charge revoked, security level clearance reduced, as if I am just starting out all over...

To top it off my internet access is completely restricted... I can't even visit Google! Totally blocked!

How does that even make sense?!
